I can't find a list of games that use metal and/or rock
Well, actually there`re some dedicated threads and they`re still available from the sticky thread in this sub-forum

The Best (insert genre) Music
Rock (Thread 54683) n' Roll (Thread 48709)
(while it says "the best" these threads are actually intended to recommendations of stuff).

Also I can only wish you good luck as the process of collecting titles of the games meeting your requirements is going to be very long. Here`s a selection of games from my collection that contain just 1 rock track (similar to

Archangel (PC, 2002) ~ synth rock (credits theme)to let you imagine the degree of involvement of such music in VG):
0 day - Attack on Earth
Alien shooter
Alliance of valiant arms
Blade runner
Cops 2170 - Power of law
Duke Nukem - Time to kill
Eradicator
Hot wheels – Mechanix
Hot wheels - Velocity X
Manhunt
Perfect dark
Postal2
Psychotoxic
Rally masters
Test drive6
Tribes – Vengeance

It`s going to be hard task as we do not distinguish between genres as easily as professionals do (for example all the reviewers of KUF - Heroes obviously listened to the same soundtrack but in their reviews music style ranges from death to punk :loldata: or let`s mention Pie`s MUA rip - while he put metal in release details I think that all the tracks which he considered metal are actually classic industrial) so I ask you to forgive my possible mistakes in advance. Let`s see:

0 day - Attack on Earth (Xbox-360, 2009) ~ hard to choose but let it be thrash metal (track #11)
Alien shooter (PC, 2003) ~ industrial metal (02)*
Alliance of valiant arms (PC, 2007) ~ nu-metal (main theme)
Blade runner (PC, 1997) ~ hardcore (unknown2)
Cops 2170 - Power of law (PC, 2005) ~ industrial metal (action!)
Duke Nukem - Time to kill (PS, 1998) ~ symphonic metal (ending)
Eradicator (PC, 1996) ~ hardcore (menu)
Hot wheels - Mechanix (PC, 2001) ~ hardcore (01)*
Hot wheels - Velocity X (PC/PS2/GC/GBA, 2002) ~ synth (02)
Manhunt (PC/PS2/Xbox, 2003) ~ synth (credits)
Perfect dark (N64, 2000) ~ ? (credits)
Postal2 (PC, 2003) ~ ? (main theme)
Psychotoxic (PC, 2005) ~ industrial rock (02)*
Rally masters (PC, 2000) ~ thrash metal with synth elements (05)*
Test drive6 (PC/PS/DC/GBC, 1999) ~ industrial rock (cars)
Tribes - Vengeance (PC, 2004) ~ industrial rock (rocky combat).

Games marked with * didn`t have their music anyhow packed so you can be sure that these are original track names.

The Darkness (2007) by Gustaf Grefberg and Shin Contra (2004) have some tracks with heavy guitars. They aren't purely "metal", the first is mostly orchestral with some guitars while the latter is on the electronic side, but they are both great OSTs with some pretty heavy tracks!

If we count 16-bit games, there's Spider-Man: Maximum Carnage (1994) by Green Jelly. It also includes the (in)famous (see the youtube video) SNES version of Sabbath's Mob Rules as boss music.

Also, the Konami Perfect Selection albums by Naoto Shibata (Dracula Battle 1,2 - Shooting Battle 1,2) although these are not OSTs but arrangements.

The Darkness (PS3/XBOX360) (2007) ~ mostly symphonic score with a few metal tracks
Shin Contra (PS2) (2004) ~ electronic & metal
Spider-Man & Venom: Maximum Carnage (SNES/GEN) (1994) ~ rock/metal, SNES style

It`s very kind of you to include no specifications required in the thread but mention bands of VGM remixers (like Black mages or Crow`s claw)...
And I wouldn`t call TD Offroad twice since the 2nd game just recycles the soundtrack of its predecessor.

Why is this deleted? I've been away from the forums for quite some time so I don't know what might have happened, either to the forums, or to Alpha23... Sorry if me writing this constitutes as a "foul".

Anyway, I thought keeping track of rock/metal-inspired VGMs was a nice idea, so I think I kept an offline copy of the list some time ago. If anyone's still interested, PM. I would re-post it but I don't have the files with me now.
